Well you got to be careful and might need to be
Gmaj7 F#m Asus D
Your heart was ready and stolen by thieves
Gmaj7 F#m Asus D
Then comes the searching that takes you away
Gmaj7 F#m Asus
One time too many but those are the breaks
D Em G D
Nobody's perfect haven't you heard that
D Em G D
So much to learn yet so much to change
F#m A D
And you're looking for fate to come to the table
F#m A G F#m Em D
And you're playing it safe till it's meant to be
D Em G D D Em G D

Well I thought I was ready for some kind of move
Gmaj7 F#m A D
So many things that I wanted to prove
Gmaj7 F#m Asus D
You heard your calling and went out to see
Gmaj7 F#m Asus
Why some throw away what some others still need
D Em G D
Nobody's perfect haven't I heard that
D Em G D
So much to learn yet so much to change
F#m A D
Looking for fate to come to the table
F#m A G F#m Em
Playing it safe knowing that

Nobody's perfect haven't you heard that
D Em G D
So much to learn yet so much to change
F#m A D
And we looked for fate coming up to the table
F#m A G F#m Em D
And we played it safe cause it's meant to be
